It is true that Eastern Catholics and Orthodox spirituality is very attractive. I truly believe that such beauty and deep mistery is, besides the Grace of Our Lord, one of the bestinstruments the Church has for conversion. It is curious to listen to lots of protestants state that since they started praising the lord, having a more active participations in their services and parishes, etc., they felt a deep spiritual change eek . Eastern Catholicism would truly make a change if it was made much more available in Roman Countries where the Protestants are gaining ground. In the Eastern Parish I go there are lots of new parishioners every week, and some of them have told me that they decided to leave protestantism when they knew the Eastern spirituality biggrin .

God Bless

Dear Bernardo,

Thank you for sharing the good news with us!

The treasures and graces of Christ's Church are priceless and unlimited. What a joy to hear that non-Catholics are coming to the beauty of the Eastern Church.

Your neighbor to the North,

Paul
